A dream within a dream within a dream
|
||||
and fell visions sidling up too close
|
||||
both woo me. Sweet caramel and soft cream
|
||||
sit cloying on their tongues, and I, Atropos
|
||||
to such dreams as these, find shears on golden thread.
|
||||
|
||||
I would not cut, nor even could, had I but wished
|
||||
to sever this golden thread — and every thread
|
||||
is golden — and end a friend and send to mist
|
||||
and sorrow ones so dear. Dead! Dead! She is dead
|
||||
and gone, for her own shears were sharper still.
|
||||
|
||||
And so she cut, and so they watched, and so I watched
|
||||
such love as this cease. I yearn to say that she returned
|
||||
to me, became a part of me, but a tally notched
|
||||
among the lost was all that stayed when life was spurned
|
||||
by the call of death — supposedly ended.
|
||||
|
||||
So, she is gone and now our lives are darker for it,
|
||||
and now this world is where the shadows lie,
|
||||
and all the light that still remains is forfeit,
|
||||
and so much green still stabs towards the sky,
|
||||
and yellowed teeth of lions still snap at the air.{{% /verse %}}
